3.1

Wipe the sleeve gasket groove
clean with alcohol.

Caution: Consult material safety data sheets
for proper handling of alcohol.

3.2

Install the sleeve gasket into the
groove. Hold the gasket in the
groove and adjust it so the end
extends 0.025 to 0.035 inch
(0.65 to 0.90 mm) past the seal
drive joint surface. See Figure 7.

3.3

Check the gasket extension with
the 0.030 inch (0.76 mm) thick
"Proud" gauge. See Figure 8.

Note: All circumferential gaskets are
cut to the proper length at the factory
and require no further trimming. The
circumferential gaskets will appear to
be too long for the groove. The extra
length of the gasket is compressed
into the groove between the
glue points.

3.4

Pull back 0.50 inch (12.7 mm) of
the sleeve gasket and use a
paper clip to put two dots of
adhesive in the groove
approximately 0.25 inch (6.35
mm) and 0.50 inch (12.7 mm)
from the seal drive joint surface.
See Figure 9.

3.5

Push the end into the adhesive
and check the gasket extension
with the "Proud" gauge. Hold it
in place for 10 seconds.
See Figure 10.

3.6

Glue the other end of the sleeve
gasket in the groove using the
same procedure.
